Ecclesiastes begins, “The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.” Eccl1:1 This enigmatic book of wisdom litera-ture gives us insight into the deep thoughts of the wisest man who ever lived and is given to us by impartial inspiration of the Holy Spirit. This treasure of wisdom not only enlightened the ancients, but has been preserved and translated for every one of us today. It can provide great insight and wise counsel for the challenges we face in our contemporary lives. Unfortunately, like those who have gone be-fore us, too much of our generation’s potential is squandered by striving after wind.
